Tinie Tempah to appear in relaunched Top Gear series

UK RAPPER Tinie Tempah will appear in the new series of hit BBC Show, Top Gear.

Earlier today, former Friends star Matt LeBlanc, who was recently announced on the new line-up of presenters of the relaunched car enthusiast show, shared a picture of himself sat in a car with the south London star.

Along with the picture, he wrote: “My co driver for a few days. @TinieTempah goin low.”

While it isn’t clear exactly what is happening with celebrity guest Tinie and Matt for the BBC series, it seems they have been working long and hard over the weekend on the show, which is being filmed in South Africa.

Tinie has also been keeping his fans up to date with his goings on while in the African nation.

BBC bosses had hoped the new eight-episode series would premiere on May 8, but this date is said to have been abandoned.

TV chiefs now hope the team will broadcast the first show featuring the new line up – which also includes German racing driver Sabine Schmitz and journalist and Sky television presenter Rory Reid – on May 22.

Chris, Matt and the other new additions appear in the popular series following Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond’s exit from Top Gear in 2015.
